Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: RootsMagic (genealogy software) Holiday Deal

[lunamarc]

Hi Cheri,

Great Idea. I do use RootsMagic at the moment but will sure give the other 
a try and see how it handles and what features I get in comparison. Thanks!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Looking for background on relatives please help

[lunamarc]

Hi Nelia,

I have the wrong line but now that I have narrowed it down. We are most 
likely related on my Martins/Correia/Bettencourt line. 

Let me know if either of these come up on your tree.

 Good afternoon everyone,

 I was wondering if anyone could assist me in finding out any 
 information on my father's side of the family.  Below I will provide some 
 names that i found in an obituary for my grandfather.  While I do not have 
 too much information, I was wondering if anyone on this forum could help 
 me 
 find out any information about my grandfather and his relatives.  
 Specifically links to databases, pictures, records, etc.  Anything that 
 will help me complete a picture of where I came from.

 Any assistance anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.  I 
 joined just now in hopes to learn more about myself and the people who 
 proceeded me.  Thank you.

 This is what I have for names: 

 Manuel P. Melo: Born in Teatro Novo, Capelas, St. Michael, Azores, he 
 was the son of the late Joao and Margarida (de Paiva) Melo and the brother 
 of the late Maria dos Anjos Paiva Medeiros and Jose Paiva Melo.

 Again, not much but if there is anyone out there who may know something 
 please share!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Need a referral

[Cheri Mello]

Hi Brian M,

I was just stating the fact of how researchers for hire work. There's a
list on the Azores GenWeb. If they are busy, they may not answer you for a
month either. And there's always the possibility of your message going into
their spam folder. That's not terse, that's a fact that happens to everyone.
Good luck!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Need a referral

Thanks for your reply.  I e-mailed (to the correct address) him over a 
month ago, hence the referral request for someone else.  No offense to him, 
or anything at all.  I was looking for someone, specifically, that could or 
would be able to meet.  If Joao can't, that's fine, he's not what I'm 
looking for.

Unsure why your reply was terse unless I'm reading it wrong.

(P.S. I know.  I speak Spanish.)

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Need a referral

[Cheri Mello]

Hi Brian M,

The researcher that lives there that covers Sao Jorge and Graciosa islands
is Joao Ventura. He has a real job (it just happens to be working in the
archives for the government for whatever they assign him). He does research
for hire as a side job. So he does this research for hire after his regular
work job is finished for the day. So you won't be able to fly over there
and just sit down with him while he is working his regular job and expect
to see him doing a side job during his regular work hours. Any of the
researchers for hire you will pay them a fee and they do the research and
send you the results. It doesn't matter if you go to their location or not,
you will still receive your results. If you happen to fly to where they are
located, maybe you could try to meet up at lunch or after work with them.

Many researchers for hire can only work so many cases at a time and some
have a wait list. If you have contacted Joao, make sure you have put "99"
and not "9" by mistake.
hero...@yahoo.com. And sometimes, life can get in the way. You did not say
how long it has been since you emailed Joao. Maybe he came down with the
flu or something. I don't know. Email him again and ask if he can take your
case (you need a name, date (or range) and the freguesias) and how long he
estimates it might be before he can get to you.

The full list of Researchers for Hire can be found on the Azores GenWeb
here. You need your ancestor's name, dates (or range), and the freguesia.
http://www.worldgenweb.org/azrwgw/researchers-available-for.html

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree DNA's Holiday Sale (through Dec. 26th)

[Cheri Mello]

(Cross posted to Azores, Madeira, and IslandRoutes lists)

Family Tree DNA (FTDNA)'s Holiday Sale has begun and will run though
Thursday, December 26th, until 11:59 PST.

At a glance, the prices appear to be the same as the Black Friday through
Cyber Monday sale. I'm waiting for a nice chart (like last time) to post
the prices.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

Practice Portuguese is European Portuguese.

As with genealogy software, pick the one that works for you! I was just

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Practice Portuguese (learn the language) Sale through Monday

['Deb McCabe' via Azores Genealogy]

I too was pointed toward Duolingo from someone who used it.  I REALLY like it.  
It is structured in a way that works well with the way my brain works.  Having 
said that, it's Brazilian Portuguese, which has caused me to stop and look for 
a European Portuguese alternative.
When I searched for ancestors, I found friends!

 I've been directed to one called Duolingo. Not sure how well this compares but 
I know it's free and does do modules also.

Practice Portuguese is an online learning module for European Portuguese. They 
have lessons (learning modules) consisting of listening, writing, fill in the 
blank, pick the picture, etc. They also have podcasts and little video episodes.

They are having a sale through Monday. It averages out to $11.50 USD per month 
if you sign up for the one year plan:

For those who are interested in learning the language, there are many to chose 
from. Pick the one that you like best, just like you do with genealogy software.
